A local user here built ssh with socks 5 support. The socks support in 1.2.14 at least was socks 4. He was able to just include the right thing that did the right #define magic for things like connect, etc. He claimed that hacking the headers and *NOT* configuring for socks made this just work. I'll see if I can get him to generate some patches and I'll pass them along (if he hasn't already sent them directly to the ssh mailing list). Changing everything to SOCKSxxxx is definitely a big pain and not the right way to fix this problem. :-( Warner
